It should also be noted---WFP itself was pushing the
@BernieSanders supporters are sending harassing tweets and are "racist" after the@ewarren endorsement....without providing much evidence of such. This of course doesn't mean there wasn't isolated examples of volatile tweetsShow this thread -
But WFP was itself pushing this with media outlets---an odd thing to do publicly if you genuinely respect and appreciate
@BernieSanders (as they said they do) and consider him to be your second choice. This was right out of@HillaryClinton and David Brock's playbookShow this thread -
Lastly, and maybe the MOST troubling...Warren's campaign treasurer is STILL on the board of

@Demos_Org made $229,523 in grants for 2017-2018. The $45,000 in grants to@WorkingFamilies makes up 20% of their overall grants. That’s a fairly significant amount for a donation-based organization.pic.twitter.com/uK2WEKJd6E

I'm no longer surprised by how small the donation amounts are that it sometimes takes to sway either politicians or political groups. Obviously though, the larger the "donation", the greater the influence.

It is disappointing and surprising how cheaply folks sell out.

It’s disappointing that people sell out at all. It reflects a lack of both integrity and humanity.
